Fridge unplugged in wife's student house during 4 week Easter holiday.
No one around, hence unplugging to save electricity etc. Door left open
to avoid smells etc. Person emptying fridge missed the 3 sausages on a
plate.

Almost identical experience in a shared house, and was also sausages.
Fridge was emptied, turned off, and door left open. One occupant came
back for some reason, presumably bought a packet of sausages and put
the unused ones in the fridge and shut the door. Arrived back to find
they had got out of the fridge all by themselves, by liquifying and
creeping out through the door seal. Would never have guessed they had
been sausages at all except for the wrapper. We cleaned up the floor,
but the fridge was left for the culprit to clean out. Not nice...
